Interesting. Just curious why Trump was not all about unity government during his first term nor did he take on Big Pharma and Big Food or give any indication he would do so at that time. But now after a couple of tweets and pandering to RFK potential voters you feel Trump had suddenly become an idealist after 78 years as an extreme narcissist (including 4 years as POTUS) all about self branding and diverting money into his own pockets?

People who have supported Trump have always done so by being willing to really lie to themselves. As well as try to sell themselves and anyone else that they are doing so for some type of greater good.

The POS is convicted of sexual assault in the court of law. Tried and convicted of 34 felonies. Lead an insurrection to delay the certification of an election by purposely lying about the results being stolen. Only to not provide any evidence in court in over 60 cases for almost 4 years. People died. Kept classified documents in order to use as leverage or sell them to the highest bidder.

Any moral ground they claim to stand on is null in void.

The biggest example of this, for me, is Christian Nationalism.

Agree with this message as a Christian myself. Whose parents were missionaries traveling overseas to preach the gospel. Who religiously studied the Bible front and back. Which is how the met, fell in love, got married. Survived off of street donations they and their group received passing out Christian literature pamphlets, pure faith & practices.

But just like the Scribes & Pharisees, Crusades, Pope endorsing slavery, Pillaging of Africa's resources, Christian Nationalism. There have always been people willing and able to manipulate The Word for personal benefit. "For the love of money is the root of all evil".

I was raised Assembly of God by very nice and good, wholesome people. I was adopted at 3 months old by a Puerto Rican family who lived their faith with humility and generosity. I was born to a Jamaican mother who had me with her White employer who took advantage of her situation as a immigrant in his employ. I went to Sunday School and they even sent me to Catholic school so I can be around Christianity ( although the wrong kind for Protestants ) and have literally dozens of ordained cousins and uncles/aunts in all type of Evangelical Churches. To my knowledge all of my family sees thru Trump and his Evangelical supporters. Maybe cause my family ain't dumb. Except the one who didn't let their kids watch Harry Potter or celebrate Halloween. Those are the kind that support Trump. The ones characterized by fear of everything.

I made a pact with myself not to put others down for their beliefs and I won't try to convince you who to vote for. That being said, just curious what you see in Trump acting differently now that you say he's found God? I still see divisiveness and hate in his stump speeches. Unapologetic, Unforgiving, Insulting people and talking about how great he is. I would think that's the opposite actions of someone who just found God. Aren't you also then saying he was selling his $50 Bibles just for the money since he hadn't found God prior? Also, what do you mean by unity? Is it unity for everyone or just Trump supporters?

Mind you, I didn’t have a problem with Trump before he found God. But I can imagine almost getting assassinated and finding God has him on a bit of a mission to clean up the corruption in the 3 letter agencies (to start.)

Regarding divisiveness, that is mostly done by the media. Remember how they sold us on “Mostly Peaceful Protests”? Or Russia Russia Russia and years of a special prosecutor but finding nothing? Project Mockingbird still strong.

Unity – well, I can’t remember ever seeing large Democratic candidates moving over to support a Republican. And to the level RFK Jr. is doing it, seems like a plan in the making. You hear more about RFK Jr. than JD Vance. Anyway, seeing Democrats coming over to Trumps side (and more on the way), is a very heavy pill for the Democrats to swallow. And everyone is seeing this. And the number of black people now supporting Trump and his policies is a huge red pill many are seeing.

I just don’t see any real meaningful changes coming under Harris. And this thread reflects that. Just more of the same or perhaps copying Trump’s ideas. E.g. Crypto Friendly
The last 4 years were an ad for “More of the same.” We’re tired of that.

Just what RFK Jr / Trump recently said about investigating the growing sicknesses/diseases in our children and our sicknesses via the corporate food supply have a lot of people’s attention. And trying a tax system based more on tariffs is promising. I trust an actual businessman and his experts to come up with something more than a politician (in general). Creating new cities. Making America strong and respected again. Not starting new wars, again in his 2nd term. There is a reason Trump is the clear favorite now. And add to that the way many States are cleaning up their voter rolls (e.g. Texas, AZ, etc), is extremely favorable to Trump.

I think this is less about politics and more about a fight between Good and Evil. My money is on God.

NYKBocker @ 8/28/2024 4:15 PM
Let me get this straight. Your money is on God and you support Trump? Not starting new wars yet there was Jan 6.

Divisiveness is just done by the media and that's it? End of story?

Is this before or after the Obama birth certificate stuff? Or the Park 5 thing?

Are people this dumb? Just blame it on media? Or did Fox News tell them to say that?

Nalod @ 8/28/2024 5:41 PM
The media pointed a gun at Trump. Nope.

Blaming the media for divisiveness in relation to Trump supporters can be best summed up by the Native American proverb " You can't wake a man pretending to be sleeping.

A lot to unpack in your post. I prefer to stay with actions and facts.

- RFK Jr ran as an Independant. He may have once been a Democrat, Trump was once one as well. He approached the Harris campaign first and when rebuffed, he threw his support towards Trump. Not sure that represents the highest levels of integrity, perseverance and resolve.

- Please feel free to share your polling information on black voter increased support for Trump since Harris became the candidate.

- There are already groups of Republicans who have flipped over to support Harris. Which Dems are you referring to that are forthcoming for Trump.

- During his first term, Trump gutted the USDA / Department of Agriculture leading to less guard rails for the Big Meat monopolies. With those types of policies in mind, how are you suggesting he will take on Big Food?

- Tariffs raise the price of goods for consumers. Almost everyone is currently unhappy when inflation hits. Are you suggesting you would be happy paying more for stuff in a perpetual state of inflation?

- Can you share the polling data that is showing Trump as the clear favorite since Harris became his opposition?

- Also - You really never answered about what Trump is doing to reveal he is on the "Good" side with God. Have you looked at what he posts on Truth Social or how he continues to denigrate people lately? Even after the assassination attempt. Has he turned to scripture? Has he become generous with his time and money? Has he turned to the teachings of Jesus? I'm all ears on your observations on this one.

Final thought, what are you expecting will change under Trump that will impact you on a personal level in a positive way?

newyorknewyork @ 8/28/2024 10:36 PM
The problem is that Can'tgetanyworse like all the others who believe the nonsense that he just posted. While ignoring any facts that isn't convenient to their agenda. If/When Trump loses the election. They are susceptible to allowing themselves to be lied to again that the election was stolen. Leading to who knows what.

The fact that he says something like Russia Russia Russia, which i still hear Trump supporters say when.
George Papadopoulos - Trump adviser pleaded guilty
Rick Gates - Manafort associate pleaded guilty
Paul Manafort - Chairman of Trump campaign pleaded guilty
Michael Flynn - National security advisor to Trump pleaded guilty
Michael Cohen - VP of the Trump organization pleaded guilty
Roger Stone - Political consultant to Trump pleaded guilty

More facts that must be ignored to push the agenda.
Clown show held a 85% turn over rate of his(Trump)own appointees while in office. His own previous VP doesn't support him.
Lost an election, lied about it being stolen, incited an insurrection leading to ppl getting killed in order to hold power. Almost got his VP hung by the mob due to not agreeing to executing he demands to overturn the election.

Mike Pence own words. Not a Democrat, or media. Trump's own appointed Vice President.

“I think it’s important that the American people know what happened in the days before January 6,” Pence said. “President Trump demanded that I use my authority as vice president presiding over the count of the Electoral College to essentially overturn the election by returning or literally rejecting votes. I had no authority to do that.”

This is the man of integrity that God is using to fulfill his will? Attaching God's name to him to begin with is so wrong.

This is exactly how I order food at a restaurant when I'm in a foreign country and can't speak or read the language. "Sure, just give me whatever is good here" JD Vance is such a weirdo. I bet Trump has had buyer's remorse since about 2 hours after he made the pick.
